Half Day Scheduled Durban City Tour |
Durban – A multicultural City shaped by a complex collaborative history involving the early colonial settlers, the indigenous Zulu population, and the Indian community who arrived as indentured labourers in the 19th century. We travel along the brand-new Golden Mile, through the City, viewing the majestic City Hall and uncover the past’s harsh system of labour control at the original offices of The KwaMuhle Museum (closed Sundays). From history to nature, we visit the peaceful Durban Botanic Gardens. Lastly, in harmony with Indian culture and history, you’re going local…taste a unique Bunny Chow, a traditional ‘take-away’ food. We then conclude with a visit to an icon, the Moses Mabhida Stadium where you will have the option of experiencing the cable car ride (own account) to the top of the Stadium for that phenomenal view of Durban and its surrounds.
OPTIONAL Day Tour – Shakaland Nandi Experience | R1273.00 per person
Shaka, legendary King of the Zulus! Experience traditional Zulu culture and customs at the largest Zulu kraal in all of Zululand, look into the future with an iSangoma or traditional healer…all this and more, packed into one exhilarating day. We’ve laid on some traditional Zulu beer for you to sample, while the craftsmen and community who make the spears, shields, beadwork, pots and their huts, open their doors so you can witness their skills and artistry. The Zulu dancers will thrill with their grace and energy, and we’ve made sure you’re treated to a most satisfying lunchtime feast! Come live a day in the life of a traditional community – you’ll find it informative and a far cry from anything you’ve ever experienced!
